Last Straw


Ordinary Lives

I've had enough, this is the last straw

I'm burning it all, no more bad draws

No more for me, or anyone else

Drag you off of your high horse and into the dregs

That you make us crawl, while you stand tall

Walking over us, now YOU take the fall

How does it feel, ain't it miserable?

Why do you puke from the same shit you throw?

You don't know my story, don't call me a bum

You don't know the burden of a first-born son

Standing in for a father who left us for dead

Mother was my only model for strength

And all of those years, I intend to repay

But not as a slave, harnessed and chained

I've played in this game for too long with no say

I'm here to live life, I'm not here for charades

So go preach to your choir

You built your career in a lavish empire

I dare you to come spend a year in my jungle

Where shit is so rough, even diamonds crumble to dust

To put food on the shelf

Poor mental health, not a pill for myself

Cuz my momma's grown frail, sister critically ill

Medical bills got me buried in debt

While you pilfer more wealth, I've been working like hell

Yet my salary's held, zero empathy felt

And no friends to reach out, they condemned me instead

Companionship ends where the money begins, huh?

And you think I'm lacking gratitude?

You think I'm just not trying as hard as you?

Two jobs, seven days, and I'm a slacking fool?

You wanna see a fucking change of attitude?

Fuck you and your self-serving class

You think your money gives everything you do a pass

What you wouldn't do for cash; trade lives for dead--

-- presidents, you might as well join the severed heads

You want stocks? Watch out for the bad signs

Cuz I will turn your fucking life's crescendo to a flatline

Just like the one from that night, I can hear it still

As she said her last I love you and her breathing failed

Hands so cold, tears froze as they fell

I'll let you have a good taste of that soul-freezing chill

She found God, while I lost the one I answer to

From now on, I'm the judge, I'm the arbiter of vengeance

And you're all accountable

Crimes against humanity: treating them like animals

Pillage, murder, theft within the law

And when I kill you, I'll be the guiltiest of all

So what's the verdict? Whose neck should be strung?

Mine, or these worthless, egotistic scum?

How many bullets do I need for everyone who wronged me?

How many shots will it take to fucking end this story?

Fuck, I just steal what I can find

Loaded handgun, ready to go Columbine

Inside that office that I've longed to burn for years

The asshole in charge just wet himself in fear

Wishing this a dream, a horror movie reel

I wish it was too, but my sister died for real

Your fortune won't save you from the karma that you've earned

Take it all to hell and see if that shit don't burn

Duh-duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-duh-duh

Empty, reload, then more duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh

How you like me now, motherfucker?

You walked like a king, now you lay like a sucker

What's the matter? No more witty quips?

Choke in your blood, you condescending prick

I did at last

Holy shit, I just killed a man

It happened so fast

I'm falling and I can't turn back

So I gotta make my exit quick before the cops arrive

Now that it's come to this, everybody has to die

That's right, I'm coming for you all

I'll show the whole world how the mighty will fall

I'm gonna kill you, I'm gonna fucking kill you

There are no depths that I'm not willing to sink to

Just to prove even royal bloods bleed red

I'll take you to the same place my dreams went

I'll take you to the same place my dreams went

I guess this is where my dreams end
